There have been times I've actually wanted to suggest that to some prospective adopters... errr! T.

Friendly ones are great... *grin* T.

Funny that... I talk to all sorts of animals, and many of them are just as intent on listening... and in some cases talking back... lol! Biggest buzz is calling a Wedge Tail Eagle and having him come to the fence for a chat... I love my Spikey! The female Little Eagle in the cage next to him will now also come down for a chat, but she's more likely to be telling me off for chatting to Spike... err! T.

... and which one were you bribing with treats? *grin* T.

Hahaha! T.

I wanna be Powerlegs if/when I grow up... T.

Wow! Just... WOW! T.

If you are talking about the one I posted a pic of... unfotunately he already has a doting family... lol! T.

Mummy's boy! T.

I'll second this recommendation! T.

Head tilt? THIS is a head tilt... lol! Ernie might need a little more practice... *grin* T.

That cute little 8 week old bundle of fluff with the resource guarding issue is going to grow into a very large dog in virtually no time at all... either return him to the breeder, or invest in a reputable and thorough trainer to help you rectify the situation. There will not be an overnight fix, nor will it be cheap... T.

Generally, if a dog has been in foster care for any length of time, the carer will know most of that dog's quirks, triggers, etc... and will be in a better position for deciding what sort of home would suit that particular dog. If that does not necessarily gel for the prospective adopter who has never met the dog, and in many cases fallen in love with a well taken photo of said dog, then that is unfortunately just the way it goes... We'd all like to think we have the perfect home to offer any dog, but maybe, just maybe, the foster carer or rescue might just know the dog in question better than we do, and are only looking for the best possible outcome for that dog. There are of course those in rescue who are just downright deluded about what constitutes a "good" home for any dog... but that just goes with the territory... T.

with awful ears .... I was actually fixated on his gorgeous eyes... looking at his human with so much love and trust... who cares what his ears look like when he adores his human so much? T.

I still have the crutches I ended up with after a Labrador game of zoomies... BOTH dogs hit me - after dodging trees and a pole... *sigh* T.

What a gorgeous girl... well done! T.

Congratulations!!! We need pics of this beauty... T.

Don is such a stunner!!! T.

VERY tempting! Very tempting indeed... Neko cuddles AND Whippet cuddles... I'd be in heaven! T.

PM mita... she will know of the best rescues in Brisbane... T.

He's gorgeous SM! T.

Me jealous... you has the prettiest puppy! T.

We never did find the other TV remote battery... but I can guarantee it wasn't inside Trouble! What we DID find was a whole lot of gravel moving it's way through her digestive tract... lol! She used to chew up and swallow rocks, OK? Pickles has a fetish for bedding,and the brighter the colour, the yummier it seems to be! Rainbow turds are an everyday occurrence here! T.

The cutest Quasimodo ever! T.

Feel free to "steal" any photo you like Powerlegs... here's a link to LOTS of rescue doggie photos I've taken over the years... http://s6.photobucket.com/user/tdierikx/library/?sort=3&page=1 For you, they are completely royalty free, OK? No need to credit or anything... T.
